Li Jian-nong: A Great Historian on World Level--Commemorating the 40th Anniversary of Li Jiannong's Death

Great Historians of the Modern Age An International Dictionary, edited chiefly by Lucian Boia, published by Greenwood Press, New York, collects the short biographies of 664 great historians all over the world since 1800, including 14 Chinese. LI Jian\|nong is among the 14 Chinese. The main contributions of LI Jian\|nong to historical science are: 1) outstanding achievements in the study of China's political history of the last hundred years. His writing The Political History of China, 1840-1928 has been translated into English, being extensively quoted and consulted by Chinese and foreign scholars; 2) opening up the study of China's ancient economic history. His writing The Drafts of the Economic Histories of Ancient China, searching after the law of development of China's society with historical materialism, is the first systematic writing of China's ancient economic history since the foundation of the People's Republic of China. His viewpoints of history and experience of doing scholarly research are worth for later scholars to learn.
